|
Despite their wide draws Scholl Deep and Ocean Diva have enough pace to cross and take up the running. EMPIRE OF ART (9) should get a solid tempo to come home off and best career runs have been at this trip. Previous second-up winner suited in this grade. OCEAN DIVA (13) had been holding her form stoutly before her last start failure. Freshened since and gets a few gear changes. Record at the mile is too good to ignore. SURREAL I AM (4) switched states to almost win again last start and tackles similar company. Perfectly drawn for an in-form prospect. HOOLIGAN TOMMY (1) got home by 3.5 lengths at Kembla Grange two starts ago but disappointed last time at Randwick when 4 lengths from the winner in sixth. Can bounce right back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Empire Of Art each-way. Box quinella 9,13,4,1.
